But it can´t be installed. Errormessage: Another version of the product is already installed.

Hi @JE.​ 

1. Download the latest version of Management Engine version 1909.12.0.1236 from here https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27610/Intel-Management-Engine-Corporate-Driver-for-Windows...
2. Disconnect your NUC from Internet.
3. Open Windows Settings > Apps and then click on Apps & Futures. Look on R.H. Panel for Intel Management Engine Components and click on it. Now click on Uninstall.
4. After uninstalling the installed version, reboot your NUC and install the downloaded version.
5. Reconnect the Internet and reboot your NUC.

I did the same, but didn't have to "disconnect from the Internet".

A better question is why isn't the utility just doing it's job?

O.K. I want ask you if my advice was correct or not. You didn't sign may answer as correct, neither from your post I can't understand if the installation succeeded? Now, about the question why the DSA couldn't install the driver and manually the driver can be installed, I can't answer. I don't know what is the software status on your machine and I'm customer like you are, rather than DSA designer. Tried to help you as I could.

JE, Excellent, it is great to hear the issue was resolved. Just to let you know, what the Intel® Driver and Support Assistant does is to look for the latest drivers available for your platform. Mainly, it was designed to work with Intel® products, such as Intel® NUCs, that is why depending on the system that you are using it might not be that accurate in finding and installing the drivers, in those cases, we recommend to visit the web site of the manufacturer of the computer to install the proper drivers.
